Abstract

Photocatalytic nitrogen fixation reaction can harvest the solar energy to convert the abundant but inert N 2 into NH 3 . Here, utilizing metal–organic framework (MOF) membranes as the ideal assembly of nanoreactors to disperse and confine gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), we realize the direct plasmonic photocatalytic nitrogen fixation under ambient conditions. Upon visible irradiation, the hot electrons generated on the AuNPs can be directly injected into the N 2 molecules adsorbed on Au surfaces. Such N 2 molecules can be additionally activated by the strong but evanescently localized surface plasmon resonance field, resulting in a supralinear intensity dependence of the ammonia evolution rate with much higher apparent quantum efficiency and lower apparent activation energy under stronger irradiation. Moreover, the gas-permeable Au@MOF membranes, consisting of numerous interconnected nanoreactors, can ensure the dispersity and stability of AuNPs, further facilitate the mass transfer of N 2 molecules and (hydrated) protons, and boost the plasmonic photocatalytic reactions at the designed gas–membrane–solution interface. As a result, an ammonia evolution rate of 18.9 mmol g Au –1 h –1 was achieved under visible light (>400 nm, 100 mW cm –2 ) with an apparent quantum efficiency of 1.54% at 520 nm.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
